What is (Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy) IMRT?
Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) is an advanced form of external beam radiation therapy used in the treatment of cancer. It is designed to precisely target and deliver radiation to cancer cells while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. IMRT utilizes computer-controlled technology to modulate the intensity of the radiation beams, allowing for a highly customized and conformal treatment approach.
Mechanism of Action:
- IMRT involves the use of multiple beams of radiation with varying intensities, shaping the radiation dose to conform to the three-dimensional shape of the tumor.
- The intensity modulation is achieved through the use of computer-controlled movable leaves or jaws in the treatment machine, allowing for precise dose delivery.
